Feng Jue closed the door and followed behind Gu Yang. Seeing that she didn’t say anything, he obediently didn’t say anything either.
Gu Yang walked to the bookshelf as if looking for a book.
After searching for a while, she stood on her tiptoes and casually picked up Ben Rousseau’s “Confessions”. At this moment, she suddenly turned around and said in a gentle voice, “Ah Jue.”
Feng Jue was a head taller than her and when he suddenly heard her call his name, he lowered his head to meet her eyes and his gaze gradually became dull.
Gu Yang threw the book on the table and raised her head slightly. She stared into his eyes and walked closer step by step. Just as they were about to touch, she stopped.
“Stop pretending.”
As Gu Yang said this softly, she reached out and grabbed Feng Jue’s hand behind his back. She pried open his slender and well-proportioned fingers one by one, and as expected, she saw the wound on his palm.
Blood seeped out of the young man’s fair palm.
When she looked up at him, Feng Jue’s dull eyes had already regained their vigor. Perhaps it was because she was close and blocking the light, his eyes were a little dark.
“You’re not hypnotized at all.”
Gu Yang said this with some disappointment.
She did not expect that the first time she used hypnosis on someone after transmigrating into a book it would be broken.
Hypnosis had always been used when people were unprepared. This made it easier for people to expose their subconsciousness. If the subjects came prepared, they could wake up by self-harming and making themselves feel pain to get rid of hypnosis.
Therefore, both times she hypnotized Feng Jue, she caught him off guard.
However, she failed both times.
Feng Jue was already on guard against her hypnosis.
“You found out.” Feng Jue lowered his eyes and laughed softly, the corners of his lips pursed into an obedient arc.
Gu Yang looked at the young man’s obedient and clean smile in front of her and panicked. This guy had definitely turned bad, but he looked calm on the surface.
She was not the original owner of the body and had not done those things to let Feng Jue down. Feng Jue should be able to tell that she was not the original host. Otherwise, he would not be wary of her hypnosis, but there was no grudge between them.
Feng Jue’s dark eyes stared at her as he approached her. His voice was so gentle that it made one’s ears itch, “How did Sister discover it?”
Gu Yang blinked and took half a step back to distance himself. “l was testing if you knew.”
Unexpectedly, she genuinely found an answer.
If not for the fact that Feng Jue’s recent actions had made her suspicious, she would never have thought that Feng Jue would have turned bad long ago and even broke free from her hypnosis.
Even if the subject was prepared, very few people could break free from her hypnosis.
Feng Jue’s footsteps seemed to have paused but he still slowly approached her. He chuckled softly and asked, “Big Sister, when did you find something suspicious?”
The summer night was cool, and the chirping of cicadas outside the window was faint. A breeze blew through the screen window.
Gu Yang could smell the faint perfume on Feng Jue’s body. It was the fragrance “Unharmed”.
Smelling the fragrance, Gu Yang felt inexplicably calm.
She retreated to the front of the bookshelf and stopped in her tracks. She raised her eyebrows slightly. “Didn’t you want to expose yourself? I don’t have the ability to make your results advance by leaps and bounds from 500 to 50. You’re usually so stable in the top 500, so you’re controlling your scores, right? Previously, you asked me to teach you some questions, but you were actually helping me with the exams, right?”
Although it was a question, her tone was firm.
Feng Jue listened to her and every time he heard a question, he would nod his head gently in response and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Gu Yang looked at him and asked, “You’re also Quest, third on the hacker rankings, right?”
Feng Jue nodded his head without any hesitation, his gentle brows seemed to look indulgent..
